Super Sketchy Sunday


Day 78 at 365 Cards was to create a card using this sketch. This wasn't the easiest sketch to use. I really couldn't get my creative juices flowing this morning, but this is my attempt at staying true to the sketch.
supplies:
American Crafts - backyard collection
AC cardstock
Autumn Leaves felt bird
felt strip of flowers from Michael's $1 bin
brads from my stash
Janome sewing machine
thread
